Atra Blanc took out a small makeup mirror from her bag and handed it to Suzanne Saunders.

Suzanne finally saw herself clearly, and she was so startled that she gasped in surprise!

——She almost thought she saw a ghost!

In fact, Suzanne didn’t have much impression of Purple Summers’ appearance.

Although they both lived in the Summers Family, Atra and her two children had an ambiguous status. Except for occasionally seeing Alexander Summers since he lived in the main house at the front, Atra and Purple lived in a small villa behind the garden and seldom showed up.

Suzanne vaguely remembered that Purple was fifteen or sixteen years old, a rebellious girl.

But no matter how rebellious, she shouldn’t have ruined her face like this!

Purple hair! Thick eyeliner! Black lips! Plus black nails on both hands——she looked like a gothic witch dressed in dark!

Too terrifying!

“What happened to my face?!” Suzanne cried out mournfully, extremely aggrieved. No wonder Alexander wanted her to get plastic surgery!

Atra was startled, thinking her daughter was going to make a scene again, quickly took out a bunch of trinkets from her bag and explained: “Don’t worry, Mom has everything here. When you were just sent to the hospital needing an oxygen mask for emergency resuscitation, so I took everything off, but didn’t lose anything.”

Suzanne looked at the items and felt like crying even more!

In Atra’s hands were a bunch of earrings and studs, along with several small steel rings and beads, obviously eyebrow and lip piercings.

“Purple, don’t worry, Mom will put them back for you, and I promise they’ll look exactly the same as before.” Atra knew her daughter’s bad temper well, and she kept coaxing and soothing softly for fear of upsetting her.

Suzanne wiped the heavy eyeliner that was almost drawn on her cheekbones, feeling as dark and deep as her eyeliner.

“Mom, help me buy a bottle of makeup remover…”

Suzanne returned the small round mirror to Atra, not wanting to look at her face a second time.

Atra was puzzled by her daughter’s reaction.

Remove makeup? Purple never removed makeup.

Every morning after waking up, Purple would check if her makeup had smudged. If it was faded, she’d touch it up a bit, making her eyeliner thicker and her eyeshadow darker. Atra could hardly remember what her daughter’s original face looked like…

Suzanne despondently covered her head and face with a bed sheet, lying motionless on the bed like a corpse, “Please, Mom… makeup remover…”

“…Oh, oh! Alright, I’ll go buy it right away. Don’t cry, Mom will be back soon.” Atra picked up her bag and hurriedly left.

Suzanne lifted the bedsheet and speechlessly watched Atra leave.

Would I cry?

Haha, I just feel too ashamed to see people, okay?

…

After Atra came back, Suzanne used the makeup remover to wash her face eight times. It was only when her face hurt from all the scrubbing that Suzanne stopped.

Her face was finally clean, but the pierced holes at the corner of her eyebrows and under her lips would remain on her face forever, only to be sealed by time…

It has to be said, being young is great. Even after Purple had treated her face like this, miraculously, spots and acne were nowhere to be seen.

The young girl in the mirror was tender and pure, with a pair of clear and bright deer-like eyes. The corners of her eyes slightly curved, giving her a natural seductiveness, a rare beauty.

Suzanne touched her own face and sighed: Youth is the best skincare.

This time in her rebirth, she was directly ten years younger, turning into a sixteen-year-old girl in the prime of her youth.

As Suzanne stared at the delicate and snow-white face in the mirror, an image of another face emerged in her mind’s eye. The face of her body underwater, rotten and unrecognizable, horrifying and ugly.

She thought: It’s time to settle some scores.
